THE BALM IN GILEAD
SCRIPTURE: Is there no balm in
Gilead; is there no physician there? Why then is not the health of the
daughter of my people recovered? Jeremiah 8:22
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Jesus is more interested in your healing than you are.
There is a difference between the balm of Gilead and the balm in
Gilead: The balm of Gilead is a fragrant medicinal resin obtained from
certain trees. While the Balm in Gilead is a Personality called Jesus
Christ who is the greatest Healer of all times.
From our anchor scripture, Jeremiah seemed to have said, ‘If there
is a Physician and a Balm in Gilead, why is the health of the people of
God not guaranteed?’
The simple answer is, the people refused to take themselves to the
Healer to take delivery of their healing. Being in possession of a
bathing soap does not guarantee the elimination of dirt but the usage of
the soap.
Beloved, Jesus is more interested in your healing than you are.
This is why the Scriptures say in 3 John 1:2, Beloved, I wish above all
things that thou mayest prosper and be in health…
Today, I connect with the healing mantle of the Great Balm in
Gilead to check every root of arthritis, tuberculosis, peptic ulcer
decease, hypertension, pneumonia, blocked fallopian tube, cancer,
asthma, hepatitis, HIV/AIDS, barrenness and poverty, out of your life,
in Jesus’ Name.
Remember this: Jesus is more interested in your healing than you are.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Come to a conscious of the truth that God can heal you and that He is interested in your healing.
2. Surrender your life to Jesus Christ and make yourself available for Him to heal you.

PRAYER: LORD, I surrender my life to You and make
myself available to take possession of my healing. Heal me, O LORD, of
every physical, material, spiritual, mental and financial affliction in
Jesus’ Name.

AMAZING FACT: Each strand of hair can support up
to 100 grams in weight. Multiply that by the average 100,000 to 150,000
strands on each head, and your entire head of hair could support the
weight equivalent to two elephants.
The amazing fact is really amazing.
